Bleh, hate having to configure all the mods after a patch. Can never seem to replicate what I had. Can't get session stats up at all and the spotted tanks function is different. Maybe OMC hasn't been able to bring in all the updated mods yet.

Yeah I am holding off until tomorrow to even try. In the AA beta (which is pretty fun so far), so I can kill a night while I wait for everyone to get the mods straightened out. I just need to remember to copy my xvm.conf before I overwrite it and have to hack it back together like I usually do  |

Mission completed! Reward:
Vehicles added: SU-85I Whew, that was a bit brutal. Anyways, the description is crappy on the 1.5 credits deal. Makes it look like you can only get it once a day. It is actually once per tank per day so lots of credits flowing this weekend along with the other missions. |

Nice job on that mission. Brutal indeed.
I'm debating when I want to log on today. I want to play my 5x before prime time to avoid the idiots going for the LTP, but also would like to do the LTP mission. Decisions decisions.

Between the 1.5x credits per tank and the today only mission for the Tetrarch, I am going to be grinding my butt off from about 1800 PDT. I figure 5x 9s and 10s should get me to 40k pretty quickly. Provided I can win a few games, that is. |

It's for the LTP (or 850 gold if you already have it). I'm probably going to do the same. |

It's a very good pvp game. No matter what other games I play, I always seem to come back to tanks for the game play and depth. |

And to hear me string random profanities together at the top of my voice as another bunch of tomatoes pisses an easy win away?
I just can't believe how many people with multiple 1000s of games played are just SO. FUCKING. BAD. at this game. You'd think they would pick some skills up accidentally, or get curious about why they can't win more than 45% of their games and actually try to learn something about the game mechanics. Nope! Just drive forward and get killed first, or hide in a corner or get killed last- anything but being somewhere that might prove useful to their team.

I had a 11k win8 game last night. Then we lost. Tier 5 is amazing . It really teaches you not to depend on your team but you can still carry hard.

Just played a tier 6 game where our KV-1S sat in the same place and did nothing the entire match. Near the end, I asked him to do something. He complained that he couldn't pen anything. I told him that if he couldn't pen tiers 4-6 with a KV-1S that this probably wasn't the game for him. Then he said something else in retardese and exploded to end the match. My last comment was to ask him to try it again in English.
After the match, he PM'ed me (I didn't even have to go troll him...he came to me, which was very helpful). Our entire conversation is captured below-

Man they have made arty frustrating (shows how shitty the xp is when I get an ace with 1400), but sometimes it is pretty fun. El Halluf Encounter ended up 2 arty v. their 3 arty, killed all three of them on the cap plus one other during the game:

If anyone needs gold, Target is running a buy one game card and get one at 25% off. Two game cards at $25 comes out to $43.75 for 12500 gold. That's 285 gold per $1. It's only through the week/weekend and is "in store" only.

Its the su-101 that I suck at.
While being fully aware of your opinion of my opinions regarding World of Tanks (and everything else) I have to say the SU-101 looks cool but is objectively horrible in almost every other way. It's like driving an SU-76 again. |

I agree it looks pretty boss but its performance doesn't match. I semi-figured it out towards the end of the grind for that mission.
These Stronghold matches are pretty fun. Like CW matches without the same level of stakes. Good practice of clan coordination too. We've smashed Villain and -G- in a couple of them (and been smashed back). In other news, apparently HAVOK has collapsed.

Morgan was in G? You mean J. And he left about a month or so ago. Claimed not enough time for CW, but I suspect he was tired of Shade's shit.
